Ximen Potian suddenly shouted loudly. He didn't look back, but looked at the roar outside the hall, as if he didn't want to see Ximen Guang.
After Ximen Guang heard Ximen Potian's angry lion-like shout, his legs softened and he almost collapsed on the ground.
He rushed over, knelt at the feet of Ximen Potian, and shouted:
"Father! It's none of your business!"
Ximen Potian didn't even look at the other party, but looked outside the hall and took a deep breath:
"Alas~ I won't interfere in the fight between you and Da Lang, but when fighting the orcs, assassinating a meritorious general is unforgivable!"
Ximen Guang's face instantly turned whiter than a blank sheet of paper, and he greeted the nineteenth generation ancestors of those assassins a hundred times in his heart!
He had ordered people to assassinate Ximen Hao, but after such a long time there was no movement. When there was movement, he chose this time!
Maybe, if someone is labeled as colluding with the orcs and treason, he will be completely finished!
"Father! Father is aware of this! My son and I are really unjust!"
"Your Majesty, although there is some distance between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty the Grand Highness, they are not indifferent to right from wrong! I think it must have been done by orcs!"
Pan Shimei stepped out of the queue and excused Ximen Guang with a salute.
As soon as he took the lead, several more civil and military officials came out instantly.
"Your Majesty is wise, I believe that Your Highness killed five enemy generals in a row, which triggered the orcs' revenge!"
"That's right! This is a big deal, I hope Your Majesty will be aware of it!"
"..."
Ximen Potian listened to the ministers justifying Ximen Guang, and sneered in his heart.
Looking outside the hall, the unconscious spy had been rescued and was kneeling at the door of the hall, with blood at the corner of his mouth and his head lowered and silent.
"Let me ask you, is the assassin an orc or a human?"
The spy quickly raised his head, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and reported:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, there are four assassins in total, all of them are human race, and they are members of the army. Their specific identities are unknown. They are being investigated in detail, and there is no news yet."
The spies' words instantly caused the expressions of all the ministers to change dramatically, and some even retreated into the queue.
Everyone looked at Ximen Guang, some disappointed, some helpless.
This prince is so ignorant!
That's all for normal times, you can play however you like, what you play is your means, and winning is your ability!
However, the nature of attacking when humans and beasts are at war is completely different.
Ximen Guang's heart dropped when he heard the spies' report. He even felt the looks in the eyes of the civil and military ministers, which were so heartbreaking!
"Father~Father~I am really unjust! If you don't believe me, go check it out. I have never sent any message to Donglin City during this period!"
He was sure of this, because it was more than a month ago when someone took action.
"Well, Your Majesty, there may be some misunderstanding."
Pan Shimei is now a mortal enemy of Ximen Hao. He can only have a chance of survival by forcefully protecting Ximen Guang.
The other prince factions hesitated one by one and wanted to explain to the prince, but when they saw the emperor's face, they shut their mouths knowingly.
"Hmph! I will find out now!"
Ximen Potian also knew that there was nothing he could do without evidence, not to mention that Ximen Guang was the crown prince of the Qing Kingdom and had the support of many ministers.
With a flick of his sleeves, he returned to the dragon chair and smiled bitterly at Feng Qingyang:
"It made the teacher laugh."
"Haha~ Your Majesty, you're welcome. The Qing Kingdom's defeat of the orcs is a great day for everyone to celebrate, but..."
Feng Qingyang changed the topic, turned around and glanced at Ximen Guang who was kneeling on the ground, then looked at Ximen Potian and said with a smile:
"However, I am somewhat interested in your Majesty's eldest prince. I just remembered that I heard someone in the Tang Dynasty say that he was brought back from the brink of death by a 'god'. A god? Haha~ A legendary figure. I hope I have a chance.
, can you meet this little guy who is favored by the gods~"
After saying that, he bowed his hands to Ximen Potian, then turned around and walked out.
Judging from his steps, although they were very light and slow, he arrived outside the palace in the blink of an eye, and in the blink of an eye, he had disappeared into the palace.
Master! Excellent master!
This is the voice of everyone.
Ximen Guang was already slumped on the ground. It was not about assassinating Ximen Hao.
Because there is no evidence that he sent someone to do it, but Feng Qingyang’s last words: I hope to meet Ximen Hao.
Doesn't this mean that the other party really wanted to give the order to Ximen Hao that day?
Why? Is it because of the illusory gods?
Or is it the reason why he killed someone in the early stages of God Forging and later in Soul Refining?
Ximen Potian looked at the empty main hall door. Apart from the kneeling spy, there was no trace of Feng Qingyang's half-day sign anywhere.
Then he glanced at Ximen Guang again, and finally set his sights on the golden Tiandu Ling!
"Martial Saint~"
"The slave is here."
"Inform the old ghost that when Dalang wakes up, he will be summoned back to Tianqing City."
Wu Sheng's expression changed, and even the fool understood that this was to give some of the opportunity to go to Tiandu Academy to the eldest prince!
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Father!"
Ximen Guang looked at his father in disbelief. He originally thought that the Tiandu Order would be given to him, and then he would go to Tiandu Academy to study for a period of time to consolidate his position as the crown prince.
But I didn’t expect that Ximen Hao had accomplished extraordinary feats in Donglin City!
Although the emperor did not explain that he had given the Tiandu Order to Ximen Hao, recalling the assigned guy back had already explained everything.
The ministers below were all silent and could not stop him.
Although Ximen Hao was sent away, all his sins can be eliminated in this battle!
Ximen Potian looked at his son, who was as pale as ashes and despairing, which made him even more disappointed.
"Erlang, my father will give you a chance. When your eldest brother returns to the court, God will let you two compete fairly!"
After saying that, he waved his sleeves:
"Retreat!"
"Retreat...towards..."
Ximen Potian took Wu Sheng away, leaving only the civil and military ministers of the court and Ximen Guang sitting on the ground in a daze.
Pan Shimei hesitated for a long time, and finally took a few steps forward and helped Ximen Guang up.
"His Royal Highness, didn't His Majesty just say, fair competition. Papers, His Highness is well-read on martial arts, and His Highness has also made great progress in cultivation during this period. As for the eldest prince, he must have used a secret method to be like this.
Combat strength. So, Your Highness, don’t worry.”
"Yes, Your Highness, I have also heard about this secret method to temporarily improve your cultivation level, and there are even pills. Your Highness, don't worry."
A military attaché from the Prince's faction also advised.
For a time, all the people from the Prince's faction started to comfort him, and only those who were neutral remained silent.
Ximen Guang glanced at everyone, took a deep breath, and felt regretful for his previous misfortune.
Suddenly, he saw a handsome young military attache at the end of the queue, who was bowing his head and saying nothing.
"Dean, what do you think?"
"brush!"
Ximenguang's words silenced the hall, and everyone looked at Dean, Di Hu's second son, and the half-brother of Di Yingying, the current eldest prince's concubine!
